Blood Slave

Prologue

"My prince, you have company. Duchess Vanessa Von Tramp.... I mean, Von Trance is here to see you."

I couldn't help but smile at my butler's statement for I knew he didn't like the Duchess of Vampires whatsoever. I couldn't help but agree with him though, the woman was a tramp.

The doors suddenly swung open, Vanessa entering in with all her voluptuous glory. Her long blonde hair was straightened with curls at the ends. She wore a long black gown that shimmered when she walked and sported a plunging v-neck that showed a hefty amount of cleavage. Vanessa gave me a smirk and her green eyes twinkled with deviousness. I stared at the duchess coolly, giving her a small, and entirely fake, smile.

"Greetings Vanessa. What brings you to my chambers?"

The blonde duchess' smirk grew into a feral grin. "My little Prince, how is my favorite vampire royal doing?" My smile immediately fell and my face blank as I continued to stare at her. I knew I wasn't her favorite vampire royal since she loathed me and my "goodie two shoes" lifestyle.

I didn't care really.

"What do you want Vanessa?"

The blonde haired vampire pouted, sitting on my bed next to me. "No hi back? Wow, you're rude." I narrowed my eyes in annoyance and glared at her. "You're wasting my time, get on with it." Vanessa got up from my bed and roamed around the room, her hips swaying with each step.

"Now, now, no need to get angry. I just have some.....important news to tell you."

I couldn't help but tense up. No news from Vanessa was good news. I take a deep breath to calm my overactive nerves and put on a faux interested look. I could tell my façade worked since the woman began to speak again. "Tomorrow night there's an auction in the Great Hall in town. You should come down and bid, instead of reading your books. You look like you need to get out more." I yawned, boredly, dropping the act. I hated going to any ball, gala, auction, basically anything that'll require me to leave the castle. Yet something in Vanessa's tone made the auction more....important than others I've been to.

"And what, pray tell, will the participants of this auction will be bidding on?"

Vanessa loudly exhaled, giving me a coy grin.

"Blood slaves, my dear Prince."

I felt my slow beating heart freeze in horror as I stared at Vanessa incredulously. Blood slaves?! How was that even possible?! Human trafficking for vampires' need for blood was against the law and could jeopardize the peace treaty between humans and vampires! "Vanessa, are you insane?! Human trafficking is illegal! Blood slaves are against the law and our peace treaty!"

The vampire rolled her eyes, sitting on the bed once more. "Relax, Prince. It's completely harmless. It's just an auction, no big deal."

I glare at her heatedly. "No big deal huh? Tell me, Vanessa. Are these humans auctioned off with consent?"

The duchess stayed quiet. Heh, I fucking knew it.

"This auction and many others before and perhaps after, will jeopardize us. We are no match for the humans! They have soldiers and we don't. We vampires are aristocrats and don't give two shits with fighting. And we're certainly bloody fucking lazy to train anyone for combat!"

The duchess winced, knowing that every word I said was true. I watch her stare in her lap, probably replaying the event were an angered human population from all over the world started to massacre the vampire population. If it wasn't for my father, the king, to declare peace between humans and vampires, no vampire would be left of the massacre.

"Do you have a blood slave?"

Vanessa nodded. "Female, dark haired, 19 years old, A positive blood." There was no other blood but A positive blood that Vanessa liked. She was a picky eater like I was. I could only stomach O negative blood, a very rare and very expensive type of blood. Silence crept it's way between us, the air thick with tension. Breaking the silence after a minute, Vanessa sighed.

"I have to clean this up don't I?"

I nod. "You are the duchess. How long has this been going on?" The blonde vampire shrugged. "I don't know. 6 to 7 months maybe?" I couldn't help but grimace. This disgusting act was up and running already. "Well, you better fix this mess up. Father will be furious if he finds out." The duchess laid herself on the bed rather dramatically, sighing an equally dramatic sigh. "Can't you live a little? It's completely regulated and no vampire can have more than one slave. And if they try to get another, most likely they've killed their first one. Killing, draining or turning their slaves will result in high treason. Plus the only occurrence in which a vampire has two slaves if said slaves are twins. Which is highly unlikely in the gathering."

I swear my eyes will fall out from the mass amount of eye rolling I was doing. "Vanessa, I don't care.
It's human trafficking, illegal and a violation to the law. I will not stand for it!"

"Fine! Have it your way! Better yet, we should do a bargain. If you show up to the auction tomorrow night, bid AND buy a slave, I'll make sure every slave owner gives their slave the choice to leave. There, that sounds much better."

I glare at the woman with hatred. How dare she challenge me! I was the Prince! But I knew that if I refused, the she wouldn't do as promised and no slave will go back home if I was their choice. Grumbling under my breath, I give Vanessa a defeated look.

"Fine, I'll go."

The duchess gave me a feral grin once more. "Remember, you must bid and buy my prince. Until tomorrow." Vanessa sashayed out of the room and closed the doors shut. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I call out to my butler.

"Jarvis! Change my sheets please! I have a tramp's scent all over them!"
